Adding one information: In TeX \brokenpenalty=10000 should do the job. But this is ignored in ConText. In this a bug? Huseyin

Hi, Am I the only one not able to connect to ConTeXt garden? Since several days when trying to connect to: http://wiki.contextgarden.net I get a « Can’t open the page because the server where the page is located isn’t responding ». I tried with Safari, Chrome and FireFox on Mac OS X 10.9, but the result is the same. If there is a new URL address, could someone send it to the list? Thanks in advance: OK

bibliography and etaltext
by Flavien Lambert 10 Jul '14

10 Jul '14

Hi, I would like the bibliography to rendered with only the first author and then et al, so I tried \definebtxrendering[example][dataset=example,method=local,alternative=apa] \setupbtxlistvariant[etallimit=2,etaldisplay=2,etaltext={\it et al}] but without success. This was my first step. In fact, I would like to use it on my customized bibliography below. \definebtxdataset[example] \usebtxdataset[example][../social.bib] \definebtxrendering[example][dataset=example,method=local,alternative=flavien] \setupbtxlistvariant[etallimit=2,etaldisplay=2,etaltext={\it et al}] \startsetups btx:flavien:article \btxfield{author}\crlf {\bf \btxfield{journal}}: \btxfield{pages}, volume~\btxfield{volume} (\btxfield{number}), \btxfield{year}\crlf {\it \btxfield{title}} \startframedtext[frame=on,leftframe=on,rightframe=off,topframe=off,bottomframe=off,location=middle,align=right,width=0.9\textwidth,bodyfont=small] \btxfield{abstract} \stopframedtext \stopsetups Thanks, F.

Latin Modern and optical sizes in math
by Joshua Krämer 09 Jul '14

09 Jul '14

Dear list, is it possible to get the correct optical sizes of Latin Modern (or another math font) in formulae? I'm using the Selectfont mechanism. In the following example, the superscripts simply use the regular font. \definefontfamily [lm] [math] [Latin Modern Math] \setupbodyfont [lm] \starttext \math{k^{k^{k}}} \stoptext Kind regards, Joshua

If its not possible at all, a small hint to this fact would help, too. So I could stop to search :) Huseyin

Dear Flavien, This version works — note “dataset=document” and the “document::” in the citation. The clue is in the log: publications > cite > non-existent entry 'batty' in '' publications > no field 'num' for tag 'batty' in dataset ‘' The second big “1” is because \completebtxrendering has an implicit \chapter, but seemingly no default title.

Stop Hyphenating Across Columns and Page Breaks
by "H. Özoguz" 09 Jul '14

09 Jul '14

Hello, this is still open, maybe its not clear, what the problem ist. I'll try again, my not realistic minexample is this one: \starttext \dorecurse{200}{Aprikosengeschmacksrichtung } \stoptext But what I mean is a feature, which many other typographic programms have, e.g. Adobe Indesign, see here: http://indesignsecrets.com/stop-hyphenating-across-columns-and-page-breaks.… Hyphenation across pages is really ugly and uncomfortable to read, how would you prevent them? Thanks! Huseyin

How can I stretch the height of the x cell (in my example) to fit the x cell content? I have tried with extreme tables and natural tables but without success. \starttext With extreme tables (y cell content fitted by default):\crlf \startxtable \startxrow \startxcell[nr=2]\input knuth \stopxcell \startxcell x \stopxcell \stopxrow \startxrow \startxcell y \stopxcell \stopxrow \stopxtable With natural tables (no fit):\crlf \startTABLE \NC[nr=2]\input knuth \NC x \NC \NR \NC y \NC \NR \stopTABLE \stoptext

Dear all, I tried to reproduce the example of mkiv-publications.pdf, chapter 10 through: \definebtxdataset[document] \usebtxdataset[document][test.bib] \definebtxrendering[document] \setupbtxrendering[document][numbering=yes] \starttext \starttext As \cite[batty] already indicated, bibtex is a \LATEX||centric program. \completebtxrendering[document] \stoptext with test.bib as @article{batty, author = 'M. Batty', title = 'The size, scale, and shape of cities', journal = 'Science', volume = '319', number = '5864', pages = '769--771', year = '2008' } Unfortunately, the result is two pages, one with As [<num:batty>] already indicated, bibtex is a L A TEX--centric program. and the other with a large 1. Could you tell me what I am doing wrong? My apologies if it is really obvious...

textbackground inside itemize
by Troy Henderson 09 Jul '14

09 Jul '14

The following code produces a textbackground whose background color enters into the "itemize label" area on the second (and succeeding) lines of the paragraph. I would appreciate advice on fixing this. Thanks, Troy Henderson --- \setuppapersize[letter,landscape][letter,landscape] \definetextbackground[foo][ state=start, location=paragraph, background=color, backgroundcolor={0.875,0.875,0.875}, frame=off ] \starttext \startcolumns[n=2,rule=on] \startitemize[n,2*broad] \item Here is my first item \starttextbackground[foo] Here is some long text that demonstrates how the background color is wrong on the second line and all successive lines of this paragraph. \stoptextbackground \item Here is my second item \stopitemize \stopcolumns \stoptext
